What Is Malloy
Links
Malloy's rederer has flexible and powerful way of pivoting data.
Nesting first
Malloy's ability to nest queries allows you to compute two levels of queries simultaneously. The query below first groups airports by state and then groups by the type of facility (fac_type). For each state we see count of all the facilities.
run: duckdb.table('../data/airports.parquet') -> { group_by: state aggregate: facility_count is count() nest: by_fac_type is { group_by: fac_type aggregate: facility_count is count() } }
[ { "state": "TX", "facility_count": 1845, "by_fac_type": [ { "fac_type": "AIRPORT", "facility_count": 1389 }, { "fac_type": "HELIPORT", "facility_count": 435 }, { "fac_type": "ULTRALIGHT", "facility_count": 8 }, { "fac_type": "STOLPORT", "facility_count": 8 }, { "fac_type": "GLIDERPORT", "facility_count": 5 } ] }, { "state": "CA", "facility_count": 984, "by_fac_type": [ { "fac_type": "AIRPORT", "facility_count": 569 }, { "fac_type": "HELIPORT", "facility_count": 396 }, { "fac_type": "SEAPLANE BASE", "facility_count": 12 }, { "fac_type": "GLIDERPORT", "facility_count": 3 }, { "fac_type": "STOLPORT", "facility_count": 2 }, { "fac_type": "ULTRALIGHT", "facility_count": 2 } ] }, { "state": "IL", "facility_count": 890, "by_fac_type": [ { "fac_type": "AIRPORT", "facility_count": 625 }, { "fac_type": "HELIPORT", "facility_count": 245 }, { "fac_type": "SEAPLANE BASE", "facility_count": 8 }, { "fac_type": "ULTRALIGHT", "facility_count": 6 }, { "fac_type": "BALLOONPORT", "facility_count": 2 }, { "fac_type": "GLIDERPORT", "facility_count": 2 }, { "fac_type": "STOLPORT", "facility_count": 2 } ] }, { "state": "FL", "facility_count": 856, "by_fac_type": [ { "fac_type": "AIRPORT", "facility_count": 511 }, { "fac_type": "HELIPORT", "facility_count": 280 }, { "fac_type": "SEAPLANE BASE", "facility_count": 43 }, { "fac_type": "STOLPORT", "facility_count": 13 }, { "fac_type": "ULTRALIGHT", "facility_count": 5 }, { "fac_type": "GLIDERPORT", "facility_count": 4 } ] }, { "state": "PA", "facility_count": 804, "by_fac_type": [ { "fac_type": "AIRPORT", "facility_count": 468 }, { "fac_type": "HELIPORT", "facility_count": 307 }, { "fac_type": "ULTRALIGHT", "facility_count": 13 }, { "fac_type": "SEAPLANE BASE", "facility_count": 10 }, { "fac_type": "STOLPORT", "facility_count": 3 }, { "fac_type": "GLIDERPORT", "facility_count": 3 } ] } ]

Just add '# pivot'
We can take this exact same query above (and same output) and have it simply rendered as a pivot table by adding a # pivot tag on the nested query.
run: duckdb.table('../data/airports.parquet') -> { group_by: state aggregate: facility_count is count() # pivot nest: by_fac_type is { group_by: fac_type aggregate: facility_count is count() } }

Pivots are really powerful
The model below is used in all the following examples.
source: flights is duckdb.table('../data/flights.parquet') extend { join_one: carriers is duckdb.table('../data/carriers.parquet') on carrier = carriers.code join_one: dest is duckdb.table('../data/airports.parquet') on destination = dest.code join_one: orig is duckdb.table('../data/airports.parquet') on destination = orig.code measure: flight_count is count() total_distance is distance.sum() }
The Classic Pivot
A classic data pivot is data is dimensionalized by two attributes the data can be rendered with one dimension along the x-axis and one dimension on the y-axis with the aggregate computations making up the center of the table. The cross section of the data allows for easy comparison. In Malloy, pivots columns are nested queries.
Carriers by FAA Region
run: flights -> { group_by: carriers.nickname # pivot nest: by_faa_region is { group_by: orig.faa_region aggregate: flight_count } }
[ { "nickname": "ATA", "by_faa_region": [ { "faa_region": "AGL", "flight_count": 1672 }, { "faa_region": "AEA", "flight_count": 480 }, { "faa_region": "ASO", "flight_count": 358 }, { "faa_region": "AWP", "flight_count": 177 }, { "faa_region": "ANM", "flight_count": 149 }, { "faa_region": "ASW", "flight_count": 132 }, { "faa_region": "ANE", "flight_count": 65 } ] }, { "nickname": "Alaska", "by_faa_region": [ { "faa_region": "ANM", "flight_count": 4345 }, { "faa_region": "AWP", "flight_count": 3604 }, { "faa_region": "AAL", "flight_count": 503 }, { "faa_region": "ASW", "flight_count": 1 } ] }, { "nickname": "America West", "by_faa_region": [ { "faa_region": "AWP", "flight_count": 7224 }, { "faa_region": "ASW", "flight_count": 912 }, { "faa_region": "ANM", "flight_count": 868 }, { "faa_region": "ACE", "flight_count": 450 }, { "faa_region": "AGL", "flight_count": 289 }, { "faa_region": "ASO", "flight_count": 7 } ] }, { "nickname": "American", "by_faa_region": [ { "faa_region": "ASW", "flight_count": 11319 }, { "faa_region": "AWP", "flight_count": 6026 }, { "faa_region": "AGL", "flight_count": 5946 }, { "faa_region": "AEA", "flight_count": 4200 }, { "faa_region": "ASO", "flight_count": 3530 }, { "faa_region": "ANM", "flight_count": 1469 }, { "faa_region": "ACE", "flight_count": 1130 }, { "faa_region": "ANE", "flight_count": 956 }, { "faa_region": "AAL", "flight_count": 1 } ] }, { "nickname": "American Eagle", "by_faa_region": [ { "faa_region": "ASW", "flight_count": 11824 }, { "faa_region": "AGL", "flight_count": 1474 }, { "faa_region": "AEA", "flight_count": 1132 }, { "faa_region": "ANE", "flight_count": 665 }, { "faa_region": "ACE", "flight_count": 470 }, { "faa_region": "ASO", "flight_count": 244 }, { "faa_region": "AWP", "flight_count": 43 }, { "faa_region": "ANM", "flight_count": 17 } ] } ]

The Pivot Filtered
You can control which dimension are shown in the pivot with a filter (and their order)
run: flights -> { group_by: carriers.nickname # pivot nest: by_state is { where: orig.state = 'CA' | 'NY' | 'WA' // only show these states group_by: orig.state aggregate: flight_count order_by: state // sort order of the pivoted columns } }
[ { "nickname": "ATA", "by_state": [ { "state": "CA", "flight_count": 78 }, { "state": "NY", "flight_count": 208 }, { "state": "WA", "flight_count": 27 } ] }, { "nickname": "Alaska", "by_state": [ { "state": "CA", "flight_count": 2633 }, { "state": "WA", "flight_count": 3257 } ] }, { "nickname": "America West", "by_state": [ { "state": "CA", "flight_count": 2038 }, { "state": "WA", "flight_count": 216 } ] }, { "nickname": "American", "by_state": [ { "state": "CA", "flight_count": 4681 }, { "state": "NY", "flight_count": 2168 }, { "state": "WA", "flight_count": 495 } ] }, { "nickname": "American Eagle", "by_state": [ { "state": "CA", "flight_count": 43 }, { "state": "NY", "flight_count": 961 } ] } ]

The Pivot with multiple aggreagtes
Pivots can have multiple aggregates. In this case we show flight_count and total_distance for each of the states.
run: flights -> { group_by: carriers.nickname # pivot nest: by_state is { where: orig.state = 'CA' | 'NY' | 'WA' // only show these states group_by: orig.state aggregate: flight_count total_distance order_by: state // sort order of the pivoted columns } }

Aggregates outside the pivot (and row ordering)
Malloy allows you to intermix unpivoted data along with pivoted data through nesting. Since pivots are nests, any aggregate outside the nest is just shown normally.
run: flights -> { group_by: carriers.nickname aggregate: total_flights is flight_count // outside the pivot total_distance # pivot nest: by_state is { where: orig.state = 'CA' | 'NY' | 'WA' // only show these states group_by: orig.state aggregate: flight_count order_by: state // sort order of the pivoted columns } }

Ordering by a column in the pivot
Malloy sorts by the first aggregate column in finds, generally. The # hidden tag allows you to not show a column in a result. By adding a measure filtered by the column we are interested in, we can sort the entire table on a column in the pivot.
Rows sorted by 'CA' flights
run: flights -> { group_by: carriers.nickname # hidden aggregate: ca_count is flight_count { where: orig.state = 'CA' } # pivot nest: by_state is { where: orig.state = 'CA' | 'NY' | 'WA' // only show these states group_by: orig.state aggregate: flight_count order_by: state // sort order of the pivoted columns } }

Malloy Renderer uses the metadata from the query to decide which columns to pivot (dimensions are pivoted, aggreates are not). In multistage queries this information is incorrect. You can manually specify this information with a 'dimensions' parameter on the pivot tag.
